It wasn’t that he wanted to force her to do anything she didn’t want.Later, he found out that she still wanted to leave and had asked Lucifer to pass the message.Lucifer recorded it and sent it to Georgina.Georgina immediately went to show it to Tanner.But Tanner wasn’t very happy. “No one can save this child except me.”She rubbed her face. “It just so happens this matter ends here—killing two birds with one stone.”Georgina and Yvonne exchanged glances and ultimately didn’t know what to say.A week passed like this, and Brody also woke up.When he came out of the sterile chamber, he seemed unable to accept the reality.Until Gemma leaped into his arms.It was only when he held her that he felt alive again.As he closed his eyes, a single tear fell.They held each other for a long time, with no one disturbing them.They left the space for them.They stared at each other for a long while, and then suddenly started to laugh.Then they cried.After they had cried enou
Yvonne met Tanner’s gaze and said, “I guessed it too, but Georgina is much smarter than me.”She emphasized, “Carter didn’t say anything, but Blake did give me some instructions.”Blake’s behavior was probably just professional habit.Tanner didn’t comment, since she hadn’t disguised herself well.Gemma asked, “Mom, Mom, Aunt Georgina, do you three have a secret?”Tanner said, “You already know it’s a secret between me, your mom, and Aunt Georgina. How could we tell you?”Gemma wasn’t an overly curious child.She was more worried about Brody and her daughter.“Mom, let’s come up with a name for the child together.”Tanner asked, “Aren’t you going to wait until Brody wakes up to decide?”Gemma said, “It’s okay. I’ll ask him then, but I guess he’d let me choose anyway. I’m doing it in advance to give him a surprise.”Tanner didn’t interfere in their affairs. “Then you choose.”Gemma hugged her, acting coquettish. “Mom, give me a hand.”“Alright, alright.” Tanner relented. “Y
She patted Tanner on the shoulder. “So, nothing’s for certain.”Tanner remained silent for a long time, then simply said, “Let’s eat.”Yvonne stopped there.After they finished eating and went outside, they found Carter waiting for her.Yvonne shook her head. “Take it step by step. The world changes, plans can’t keep up with it.”Carter still said a word of thanks.Yvonne replied, “No need to be polite. We’re all family now.”Blake didn’t return immediately, he wanted to investigate the place Tanner had gone.Tanner hadn’t seemed quite right since she returned.That place contained things that couldn’t be found on the market, it wasn’t as simple as it looked.At that moment, Yvonne called him.“Did you miss me?”Yvonne said, “Tanner is prepared to leave this world. She’s never really let go of Jonas. She used to live for Gemma, but maybe because of this accident, she has made a decision.”Blake asked, “What decision?”Yvonne said, “The decision to go find Jonas.”Blake w
He was about to speak, but then he noticed a surprise.“Can she actually produce blood now?”That meant they didn’t have to drain Gemma’s blood to save Brody.Tanner administered the medicine to Brody again.Then she whispered a few words to Carter.Carter’s usually icy expression showed significant emotion.“Tanner, you can’t...”Tanner looked at him and signaled him not to speak.Carter pressed his lips straight. “Tanner, is there really no other?”Tanner hadn’t wanted to live either.She had already lived long enough.And she didn’t want to marry Kay, now she finally had a reason.Carter, however, couldn’t make the decision alone. “Tanner, you can’t keep this from my brother. Others also need to be informed. Have you thought about how Gemma and the others will live after this...”Tanner shook her head. “It’s enough that you know. As for the reason, it’s not for them. I’ve been sick all along, and I also miss Jonas.”Carter hadn’t expected that after all these years, sh
Tanner frowned. “Name something else”Kay didn’t speak.Tanner confronted him for a long time. “I once saved you, and now this is how you treat me?”Kay said, “But I have already repaid your life-saving favor. For your daughter’s illness, the most important herb was personally delivered by me.”He bent down to meet her eyes. “Back then, I said, if you need me to help you with anything else, you must marry me in exchange.”Tanner would never marry anyone in her life.She just waited to live out her days and then go to find Jonas.“Seems you didn’t love that daughter much either, after all, she wasn’t Jonas’s child.”Kay reached out and took the hat off her head.“To the point of being able to give up even yourself for her, it’s unnecessary.”Tanner took back her hat, put it on again, and asked, “So you don’t actually have the medicine?”Kay raised his hand, and someone brought the medicine over.Tanner pressed her lips together. “I’ll agree to your terms, but you must wait u
Carter went to see off all the classmates.They couldn’t help much anyway.They couldn’t keep people on the island forever.He also gave a warning.When he returned, he saw Tanner drawing blood from the technician.“What are you doing?”Tanner told him what the technician had said.Carter’s eyes instantly turned cold and sharp.The technician shrank his neck. “We can talk, please don’t hurt me.”Carter wasn’t about to use force on someone like him.He helped Tanner test the blood.If it worked, they could slowly start transfusing the blood.Tanner also had drugs that helped to recover one’s blood, and there was still a space in the sterile chamber for the technician.But the result was not ideal.The technician could also see the data. Actually, even if he couldn’t, it didn’t matter, he could tell from Tanner and Carter’s faces.“This is my last method. If my blood doesn’t work, you’ll have to try your luck at the place I mentioned.”“What place?” asked Carter.Tanner
